HOW TO READ NATURE

Author Tristan Gooley offers listeners a short list of fifteen-minute exercises to help them get back in touch with nature. From taking time to study cloud formations to scooping stagnant water from a mud puddle, Gooley's suggestions seem to be intended for listeners who haven't been outdoors in quite some time. Narrator Qarie Marshall is the quintessential neutral narrator. His well-enunciated reading offers neither bias nor embellishment. He simply conveys the information clearly without distraction. This is a quick listen at just over three hours, full of facts about nature and advice on how and why to reconnect with it. M.M.G. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2017]
